Edit .htaccess to allow PDF?
-
Hello,
New to WordPress – so I apologize for me amateur question.
I upoaded a PDF to my root folder through FTP, but noticed immediately that each time I try to link to the file, I get a ‘Page Not Found’. I am assuming this is an issue with my .htaccess file? If so – how do I edit to allow links to download PDF files direction?
Here is what I am trying – but is not working:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule># END WordPress
<Files ~ “\.(pdf)$”>
order deny,allow
allow from all
</Files><FilesMatch “\.(?i:pdf)$”>
ForceType application/octet-stream
Header set Content-Disposition attachment
</FilesMatch>
Thank you!
